Well, I call busllshit. You Alaskans are responsible for electing an idiot for a governor in the first place. It is your fault this vile family is part of our political landscape.<br /><br />The bigger story is not the taxes, but how the Palin in the years from 2000-2007 was able to amass such a huge property portfolio on relatively modest means considering the cost of living in Alaska and the size of her family.<br /><br />All this and the original house in Wasilla were built at the same time. If your trying to tell me she was able to acquire and build all of these luxury homes on a governor and part time slope/fisherman salaries, then I have a bridge in Brooklyn to sell you. The cost of hauling in the materials to a remote location for houses of those sizes had to run into the tens of thousands alone.<br /><br />There is MUCH more to this story, much more unreported income, and dirty backroom bribes and freebies.<br /><br />Plus, the hypocrisy of a woman who made her living that is PAID BY JUST SUCH TAXES, who then claims ignorance?

Book Review...O/T but here's your Friday funny.<br /><br />Book Review: Sarah Palin's Secret Diary by Joey Green<br />http://blogcritics.org/books/article/book-review-sarah-palins-secret-diary/<br /><br />Product Description<br />This genuine imitation of Sarah Palin’s diary, fabricated by a bona fide satirist, reveals spurious behind-the-scenes happenings with all your favorite mavericks from the extended Palin family—Todd, Bristol, Piper, Willow, Trig, Levi Johnston, John McCain, and Joe the Plumber. They’re all here and more! Inside you’ll find the ersatz adventures of America’s favorite hockey mom, including such fallacious details as . . . How Bristol revealed her little secret. Going rogue with Joe the Plumber. Books the former Governor would love to ban. How to speak Maverick. Why John McCain chose to run with Miss Wasilla. Waterboarding Tina Fey. What happened to all those ritzy clothes. The concession speech she never gave. Campaign slogans for 2012. Will this laugh-out-loud lampoon of Sarah Palin’s intimate story give you an enlightening peek inside the most astonishing mind in American politics? You betcha! About the Author: Joey Green, a former contributing editor to the National Lampoon, is the author of dozens of books...<br /><br />http://www.amazon.com/Sarah-Palins-Secret-Diary-Green/dp/0977259048 (Click to LOOK INSIDE)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9361564.post-59284347117215720002010-02-05T04:39:03.078-09:002010-02-05T04:39:03.078-09:00Yes, $arah will probably just get a fine and be fo...Yes, $arah will probably just get a fine and be forced to pay back taxes.

Stay courageous - we're progessing!<br /><br />http://andrewsullivan.theatlantic.com/the_daily_dish/2010/02/my-john-edwards-failure.html<br /><br />"With Palin, people assumed that because she was a governor, she had a baseline level of competence, logic, general knowledge and mental stability. Wrong. On the Trig stuff, it was just too absurd to doubt her story, however factually implausible it appeared. With Edwards, people assumed that his own good looks, and his much less glamorous, though still lovely, wife implied a marriage of depth and love. We assumed that the shared loss of their son had bonded them for ever (while of course the evidence often suggests, tragically, that losing a child is a death-knell for many marriages). We assumed that he wasn't one of the biggest assholes on the planet.<br /><br />So we didn't go there. But he, like Palin, could have been president of the US at some point. And we barely knew him. I want to apologize to my readers for dropping this ball. And congratulate the National Enquirer for following the facts where they eventually led.<br /><br />There's courage in that.
